Book Stalls on Board Shin.

Nowhere is light literature in such
request as On board ship, and yet no
plan has been hit upon to reach the
enormous floating custom of eager pur-
chasers out of reach of the existing
sources of supply. l see no difficulties
in the way no any reason why book
stalls should not be opened on board
passenger ships as well as at railway
stations. Such need not in any disad-
vantageous way affect the economy of
the ships or companies. From all l can
hear from persons intimately acquain-
ted with the workings of passenger
carrying steamers it seems probable
that ship-Owners would really fall in
with the plans of IN organization Offer
ing to add very considerably to the
convenience Of the public who patron
ize them, giving every facility to any
commercial enterprise of the descrip-
ton. 1t might require some time for
the business to take hold and secure
an extensive connection such as would
raise it to the position of agrowing con-
Germ. There would be features in the
trade differing just so much from the
railway department as to make a
speciality of it; the management
would have to devote themselves n
tirely to their particular branch, and
the peculiarities of the business would
soon become apparent to any bookseller
not abnormaly incapable. An expert
mental book stall or two set up on
board Atlantic liners would perhaps
be an advisable way of. broaching the
undertaking.-PaH Mall Gazette.

The lollowing screed, written by 4
naval o2loeE lo4 private circulation,
and not intended tor general publ
cation, ~ found n the navy-yard. Il
shows very plainly how badly doctors
are tfeatsd N Uncle Sans service, and
explains Why good medical men prefer
to remain ii civil life:
When the 6rst Of the Roach cruisers
arrived ct the nAvy-yard IL was found
that by some strange oversight . com.
Portable place had been allowed for the
sick. The commanding ofacer Of the
vessel, discovering this fact, immedi.
sicily rectiAed IL. The surgeon Of the
ship on finding the change went into
the cabin to . about Il. He made
some mild inquiries on the subject when
the captain, in tones Of thunder asked
SWhat do you mean, sir. by coming into
my cabin. sir, and making sug-sir-
gestions, cir, about my ship, SIR" and
incontinently bounced the terrified
doctor, DIR, out Of his cabin, sir. The
doctor Was % terrified that his hair,
with the exception Of Q slight forelock,
turned white. Il was only after the
most abject and profnse apologies that
the captain allowed him to stay in the
II beg pardon, In h~is-service. On one
Of the vessels during the wal q young
doctor, inst caught, had the temer-
ity TO put . man on the sick list whom
the captain did not want there. The
man only had pneumonia or something
like that. It couldn't have been q fever
because the first lieutenant always kept
the berth-deck where the men Sleep
wet nicely with salt water. The cap
tain ct Once sent for the doctor and de-
manded to know how he dared to put
that man on the sick list. The fright.
ened doctor attempted to humble some
feeble excuses, when the captain roared
ont: 4Silence, sir, whom yon speak to
your commanding ofiicer!" The poor
doctor flew from the cabin, and was
next heard Of at Omaha on his way
west. Il is believed he is still going.
Another instance occurred when the
doctor of q ship had the audacity to
complain because all the breathing
places and all the bathrooms, closets,
ETC., were appropriated by the captain,
while the officers and the n were
confined to the lower decks This was
none Of the doctors business, and this
state Of things had always obtained and
does still obtain. The captain at once
had the doctor contaminated and con-
demned to death. But the doctor had
. pull, and his friends had his sentence
mitigated to imprisonment for life. He
e now serving out his term on the West
Tortugas. Notwithstanding all these
privileges it is impossible to get med.
ical men to enter the navy. They have
other advantages. Whether married
or single, when q doctor enters the
navy he is allowed to eat, sleep, dress,
or undress in . real sociable manner in
. nice little room in the steerage about
6x8, with a dozen midshipmen. Still
they won't come. I can't imagine what
they want. It must be the earth.

Not many years ago O Grand Trunk
detective, noted for his storytelling
propensities, was hunting for two sta
tion-robbers up in the midland dis
trict. 1t was winter, and he had a
county constable and a horse and cutter
with him. The scent became hot, and
the detective discovered that the fugi-
tives were only o few miles ahead Of
him, also driving in a cutter. He
telegraphed to . constable in the next
town to arrest two men in q cutter, Civ
ing their description. Now it happened
that the description given applied
equally we'll to himself and his com
panion, provided the detectives bushy
black beard was clipped short. It
was getting dusk and very cold Is
they neared the town, and the de-
tective buttoned his peajacket over his
beard to prevent it from getting FROST
bitten. When they arrived at the town
darkness had set in. and they both
jumped out of the cutter to water
the horse before hunting up the con-
stable. The constable had been on
the lookout for the fugitives, and, as
the detective and his partner turned
up first, he Immediately surmised that
they were his game, SO he quietly
sent word around, and in q few moments
q crowd surrounded the cutter and the
town constable approached to arrest
the pursuing party. The detective
asked what the crowd wanted, and
when told he got mad at their stupidity
and undertook to lick the gang. In
q few minutes he vas knocked down,
and, after being mauled about in the
wet snow, he found himself and COM
panion in the little 7 by 8 lookup for
the night. The night was exceedingly
cold, aud the prisoners were almost
frozen to death when morning came.
They were taken before . magistrate,
explanations followed, and they were
released. but the detective ever since,
in telegraphing . description, is care
full that it does not tally with himself.
